OUR KANSAS CITY LETTER.

Editor of Ne,cs:-
 Preached Kansas City April 2d. one month ago to-day, but found the eli mate much different than I expected, leaving Canaan with foot of snow on the ground, but when I reached here the crops were all up, the apple and peach trees were all in bloom.
 There are two or three objections to this country, viz r.: the mud, wind and water. The soil is very black and heavy, and after rain 1t is almost inn possible to walk. The first mud that witnessed was after rain, and in cross ing road I was delayed about three hours. To-day we~had what might be called next-door neighbor to a cyclone A black cloud came up in the west and brought forth horrible dust and wind, but no damage was done as far as have heard, It made me think of Canaan. The water there are no wells or springs in this section of the country. All the water which Is used for drinking and cooking purposes is cistern water, and that is terrible. I suppose it is nothing when one gets used to it, but it was a long time before I could make up my mind that 1t was fit to drink.
 There is one of the greatest booms in real estate here you ever saw property will double in six months I don't believe there is building or lot in the city or within ten miles, but what is covered with signs For Sale.' The business here is mostly carried on by eastern capital and men from the east. I have been on the force with Futile X Pike ever since I have been here. There are about 25 men on the force. We are surveying building lots, mostly in the city, and even 10 or 12 miles out in the country. I think if some of the East ern farmers could only see how they farm it out here, they would acknow- ledge that they knew nothing about farming whatever. One man here attends from 70 to 100 acres of corn and all other crops in proportion. The cattle here are immense, both for size and beauty. Yours Truly, B. D. BENEDICT

BARTRAM AND HIS CLUB.

Drawn from Life for The Gazette.l
 When MT Skelley of Woodbury introduced his pet amendment to leave the matter to the people, and then tried to initiate Roraback in his argument, he evidently thought he had pulled the chestnut out of the burr, but left, sadly left was he. Bartram of Sharon was there, and had big club with him, as big as that used by Roraback on Gov Andrews speech in Woodstock. Was 1t used ? What was it We'll, we should seek to articulate This club was a petition from Woodbury in 1882, asking to be set off from Litchfield county on account of the inconvenience of reach ing Litchfeld. Just imagine, dear reader, the discontinue of Mir Skelly when Mir Bartram unrolled that peti- tion in the house, and exhibited to the gaze of the sages there, the 372 names. including MT Skelly's and Mir Linds- ley's, signed to the ponderous manu- script. Below Mir Bartram appears in the diabolical act of trapping Mir Skelly, taken from an instantaneous photo graph by our special artist
